So, Herman Cain. Really? This guy is a joke right. The Republicans are not really going to run this guy. To me, he’s just as bad as Michelle B., the male and African-American version. Are their strategists thinking that if you run 2 black people you’ll split the black vote or that color will not be a factor for minority voters and the issues will take center stage? What is the strategy? The fact that he’s getting so much air time for that 9-9-9 Sims economic plan is amazing. Slow news cycle, maybe? Come on, primary season.

I don’t see a Mormon getting the nod if the Evangelical Right has anything to say about it. Um, I was raised Baptist and if Jehovah’s Witnesses aren’t thought to have the same religious beliefs, you know that Mormonism is going to be seen as a cult, basically.

So, a black guy and a white Mormon guy are at the top of the running. Which one do you think has the best chance of getting the RNC nomination (if they both have any standing by next year)? List some pros and cons if you have any or are conflicted with your choice.

I’d like to know what my readers think about this. Should Black People be drawn to this movement? Should we consider Black unemployment rates and how many Blacks were affected by the housing crisis (Ponzi Scheme/Gambling in my opinion.) as motivation? Here are a few recent takes on it.

Bonus Question: Is it just me or does the lack of Tea Party involvement or even a thumbs-up or two in the direction of the protesters make it seem even more as if they are the Party of the Rich and of Tax Loopholes? Oh my bad “Job Creators”. LOL! Don’t you love it when people try to reclaim and rename what is and has always been. No no, not slave owners…”Antebellum Job Creators”. Sad.
